    If Lincspeed is Clark Lincoln I believe he's been possibly involved in some help with bodywork styling on a car or two....but not aware of a complete car build.

    If its anything like the LSR2 I drove, this thing should be pretty promising! Especially with Mike and Clark working together.

    Lawrence, the chassis will be identical to the LSR-II, the top shape of the body work is a near copy of the LSR-II sports racer center section. The sidepods, floors, rear tire kicker and the the front wings are already HRP std products. Basically new molds for the bodytop and the nose/crush box and we are off to the races so to speak.

    Mike, the original FB project got mothballed some time back because I could not afford to do the tooling for both so in a way this is a continuation of the original concept.

    The good news is that we have all learned a lot since then and I know this will be a better product than we would have made back then.

    The photo shop image was started using Mike Holland's FB that we built over an RF98 conversion for him last year. So the side pods, floors, diffuser, suspension, wheels and tires came from that image. The kickers are an HRP product and have run on several cars including Slahor's Nova conversion. The basis for the bodywork is the center section of the LSR-II sports racer that we built in 2008/9 ( http://dsrforum.yuku.com/topic/5258/LSR2-Update ) and that car was based on an RF-95 so the rollhoop fairing is based on that build. The front wings are the ones that were run on JR's car at the ARRC earlier this month.

    I know the answer to coop's question but I am not going to answer it yet.

    More later.............
